In this episode of the Energy News Beat Daily Standup, hosts Michael Tanner and Stuart Turley discuss various energy-related topics. They touch on New York's recent challenges with power grid reliability during winter storms, the EPA's final rule for oil and natural gas operations aimed at reducing methane emissions, and the confusion surrounding the redefinition of foreign entities of concern, particularly in the context of China's involvement in the energy business. The hosts also cover the U.S. commitment to shutting down coal plants during COP 28, conflicting statements at COP 28 regarding the science behind phasing out fossil fuels, Russia's ambitions to become one of the world's biggest LNG producers, and the underwhelming outcome of OPEC+ extending oil output cuts. The episode provides insights into the complex and dynamic landscape of the energy industry with a blend of humor and critical analysis.Highlights of the Podcast00:00 - Intro04:02 - New York’s Near Zombie Apocalypse06:40 - EPA’s Final Rule for Oil and Natural Gas Operations Will Sharply Reduce Methane and Other Harmful Pollution.11:53 - DOE redefines foreign entity of concern – EV confusing regulations just got no help14:22 - US commits to shutting down its coal plants during COP28 – US Consumers Thrown Out With The Bath Water17:03 - COP28 president claims there is ‘no science’ behind calls to phase out fossil fuels – Guardian18:38 - Russia about to become one of the world’s biggest LNG producers – Gazprom22:26 - OPEC+ to extend oil output cuts24:14 - Markets Update26:38 - Occidental jet visits Warren Buffett’s hometown amidst potential $10 billion shale deal'28:34 - OutroPlease see the links below for articles that we discuss in the podcast.New York’s Near Zombie ApocalypseImagine if nearly half of New York City lost heat for months during the winter.
